Grand Lord Hong Lian laughed coldly as he stared mockingly at Lin Yun.
"Didn't you say that you wanted to fight one-on-one with me? What? Are you going to use someone else's name as a threat now?"
Lin Yun's expression changed several times. "I'm only doing this for your own good. After all, I really admire your abilities so I don't want you to die here."
"Hahaha!" Grand Lord Hong Lian burst into laughter. "For my own good? Who was it who had sent people to kill me and did not hesitate to capture my daughter and use her to threaten me? Who was it who had sent countless Martial Saints after me for the sake of eliminating me who was a high-level Martial Supreme at the time! Now, you're saying that you don't want me to die here so I could spare your life?"
Each word that Grand Lord Hong Lian said caused Lin Yun's expression to sink even more. He then fixed a venomous glare upon the red-robed man as the murderous air from his being thickened.
I should have known. During that year, I should have disregarded the First City's rules and sent my most powerful cultivators to kill this man immediately.
However, I had been too afraid. Even though I had someone backing me up, I didn't have the courage to cross the line. As a result, he has been able to grow into this stage.
Nevertheless, no matter how much Lin Yun regrets it, it was now too late!
"What do you want?"
He gritted his teeth and spat.
"I don't ask for much," Grand Lord Hong Lian laughed icily as he replied. "I only want you to die!"
Bang!
Grand Lord Hong Lian raised the sword in his hand. Instantly, a flash of red light shot across the sky towards the nearby Lin Yun.
Stab!
The wave of energy from the sword struck Lin Yun's chest. His body instantly fell from the sky and crashed to the ground. Fresh blood then began to pour from his mouth, turning his face as white as a sheet without a trace of color to be seen.
"Master!"
The expressions of the Lin family members changed drastically as they quickly surrounded Lin Yun. However, no one dared to draw their weapons and fight.
That man's power was simply too horrifying. At this moment, no one in the Lin family was of any match for him.
"Yun'er, the members of the Lin family had once tried to kill you. How would you like to deal with them?" Grand Lord Hong Lian's eyes were staring down at the Lin family members beneath him. He then said, "Do you plan to slice them into mincemeat or to leave them without a whole corpse?"
Gu Ruoyun did not reply as she slowly walked towards the Lin family members. An indifferent light enveloped her face as she bent down and faced the old man lying on the ground.
"In the Lin family's opinion, is it true that weak and lowly people have no right to live?"
Despite being heavily injured, Lin Yun's face was still full of arrogance. He laughed scornfully and replied, "That's right. If this kid, Gu Tian, did not have this much power, perhaps he would have been killed by the Lin family long ago. The law of the jungle has always applied in this world. Those who don't have power have no right to live in this world."
"That's right, the law of the jungle applies. If you're not powerful enough, you'd be devoured by others. However..."
She paused and the cold light in her eyes grew even more pronounced.
"It's because others want to consume you so you would retaliate! That's the meaning of the law of the jungle! If you're faced with a bunch of people who don't even have the strength to truss up a chicken, would the Lin family kill them as well?"
"That would depend on what the opposition has done!" Lin Yun raised his head to face Gu Ruoyun, gritted his teeth and said, "Anyone who dares to oppose the Lin family must die!"
Gu Ruoyun laughed but her smile did not reach her eyes.
Her dark eyes only held an endless chill and a clearly obvious murderous intent.
